7 Night Cruise sailing from Baltra roundtrip aboard Solaris.
Our 8-day eastern route visits some of the most popular landmarks of the Galapagos including the panoramic view of Bartolome, the offshore sculpture of Kicker Rock and the blowhole of Española. You will also get to snorkel in the most spectacular sites, amongst penguins, sea lions, turtles and more. As well as learning about the fascinating volcanic formations, you can spot endless wildlife including iguanas, booby colonies and albatrosses, and relax on striking coral sand beaches.
DAY 1 AM Arrival at Baltra Airport
You have to pay your Galapagos National Park entrance fee and your luggage wil be inspected.
PM Mosquera
Mosquera stands out for having one of the largest concentrations of Galapagos sea lions in the entire archipelago.
DAY 2 AM Darwin Bay (Genovesa)
As one of the outer islands and most exclusive places on the Galapagos, Genovesa is well worth last night’s longer navigation. This compact site in the heart of its flooded crater shows the extremely varied coastal ecosystems of the Galapagos in miniature; nearly too much for a single day.
PM Prince Phillip’s Steps (Genovesa)
Not only because of its historical English name (Tower) Genovesa has a royal touch. Follow in the footsteps of Prince Philip – Galapagos lover for many years – and visit this favourite birding spot with the largest breeding colonies of red-footed and Nazca boobies, and look for the remarkable short-eared owl that hunts on foot!
DAY 3 AM South Plaza
Popular South Plaza is not to be missed! This bizarre ‘Jurassic islet’ is the best place to see the emblematic ‘Galapagos dragons’, which crawl across it.
PM Barrington Bay (Santa Fe)
Practically every animal on Santa Fe is unique; endemic to the Galapagos, or even to this island alone and extremely vulnerable! This extraordinary island is a remnant of probably the most ancient volcano of the Galapagos.
DAY 4 AM Kicker Rock (San Cristóbal)
Kicker Rock has become one of the photogenic landmarks of the Galapagos. Clearly visible from afar, nature has moulded a huge offshore block of rock with a stabbing tower aside.
PM Interpretation Centre (San Cristóbal)
The interpretation centre just outside Puerto Baquerizo forms the engaging supplement of your cruise.
DAY 5 AM Gardner Bay (Española)
Being one of the crown jewels of Galapagos, Española gives you the exclusive opportunity to become eyewitness of evolution.
PM Suarez Point (Española)
Española’s west tip is a true birdwatcher’s and photographer’s dream. Feel yourself right within an exciting nature documentary, and hike in short distance past most colourful marine iguanas.
DAY 6 AM Cormorant Point
Please don’t expect flightless cormorants at Cormorant Point (they live in the West Galapagos). Instead, you may spot Galapagos penguins or a flamingo lagoon against a backdrop of extinct tuff cones and scented palo santo bushes.
Champion Islet
Floreana offers some of the most spectacular snorkelling sites, such as Champion Islet.
PM Post Office Bay
Bring your postcards and post them in the peculiar traditional barrel on this historic site that seems to be located at the end of the world. These might arrive home quicker than you!.
DAY 7 AM Sullivan Bay (Santiago)
Sullivan bay is incomparable to any other visitor’s site; setting foot at the recently solidified lava flow is like landing on the moon!.
PM Bartolomé
This tiny volcano islet is just recently born out off fire. Enter its wild romantic setting of spatter cones and craters, see most famous panorama of Galapagos.
DAY 8 AM Black Turtle Cove (Santa Cruz)
This beautiful and tranquil bay is actually not a landing site, but is the ideal spot for a dinghy (panga) exploration.
PM Transfer to Baltra Airport
Assisted by the naturalist guide and some crew members the dinghy will bring you and your luggage to Baltra, where we take the airport shuttle. Your guide will accompany you until the check-in counters in the departure hall.
